Our Standards
Across the state of Vermont, local curricula are developed by teachers based on state-adopted standards. These include the
- Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts and math
- Next Generation Science Standards in science
- College, Career, and Civic Life (C3) Standards in Social Studies
- National Core Arts Standards (NCAS) in the visual and performing arts

In ACSD, we build our curriculum collaboratively using these standards within the International Baccalaureate (IB) teaching and learning framework. You can learn more about the IB approach to curriculum through these links: Primary Years Program (PreK-Grade 5), Middle Years Program (Grades 6-10), Diploma Program (Grades 11-12) and through the International Baccalaureate tab above.
For information on ACSD's performance as reported by the State of Vermont's Agency of Education, see the Annual Snapshot.
